2016 Jeep Renegade

The radiator fan will stop working or work intermittently. If it's not running when the temp gets up you have to manually Spin The Fan then it will engage. It is prone to overheating while idling or moving slow. I have replaced the fan on a active recall for this model three times already. The fans usually last from anywhere from 4 months to a 8 months.

there were no warnings on the vehicle to indicate a problem occurring. coming from a complete stop there is a delay in accelerating to speed - feels like a stall and the pedal is not receiving any gas... but the tank is full. dealership never found any issues nor were able to reproduce the same problem. this problem happens multiple times a year. this is dangerous for driving as i'm unable to get to full speed in traffic.

UNKNOWN I was recently sold a vehicle that I feel should be under the "safe car" issues. The engine cooling fan. If an engine cooling fan is not working right, this can cause the engine to overheat and the potential exists for a vehicle fire. How is that not a safety issue? Two Manufacturer recalls on the Jeep Renegade 2016: #V54 2015-2017 VM BU FB ENGINE COOLING FAN #W20 2013-2019 Mutli Vehicle 2.4 Reprogram PCM PH1 I bought a car not realizing the signficance of these recalls which were not explained to me at the time of purchase. Neither recall repairs were done by the previous owner. I feel the engine cooling fan is a serious safety issue yet it is not listed on your website. This means other unsuspecting buyers can purchase cars without salespeople being required to disclose detailed recall information. Nor whether or not this recall was taken care of by the previous owner. In my case, it was not.

Had this car since 2016,only 39,289miles,no problems whatsoever,and then I did this recall thing the 12th of July 2021,and today the 14th of July 2021 I have an engine light on,I have this horrible noise when I turn it on,I am so pissed and mad!!!really mad!!!Techs should not touch anything else than whats is called for to be fixed!!!i feel that when we take the cars they mess things out so we,the customers have to end up putting money since is free,they need customers to go back and spend on something that it didn’t needed it from the beginning!!!like I said 6yrs and not a problem,even have a multi point inspection sheet that it shows everything was great!!!i am scare to take back,because now I’m going to end up paying for their mistakes/fault/unprofessional work.I am so disappointed,upset,mad.I was planning to buy there again,but now I’m re thinking bout it!it won’t get fixed I know I will end up paying,but I want to make a complaint so that way at least it will pile with other people who end up having the same problems!why do Mechanics do that,or Techs do it!if is not broken,don’t fix it please.They should take an integrity test and not take advantage of the situation.

The 'Service Engine' light came on and the vehicle overheated 400 miles from home. The servicing Jeep dealer (Vision Jeep in Rochester, NY) stated the engine cooling fan failed, in the same manner as noted in Recall Campaign v54 for the cooling fan in 2015-2017 Jeep Renegades. My car is a 2016 Renegade, and the service manager was surprised my VIN was not included in the recall. He stated it failed in the same way as other recall repairs they did for the same model car, and was the same part that failed. I firmly believe it was a mistake that my VIN wasn't included, despite the model and year of my car being in the range of the cars for recall v54.

THIS CAR COMES ALMOST TO A DEAD STOP AND STALLS WHEN ACCELERATING. ITS DANGEROUS BECAUSE IT WILL STALL RIGHT AS I'M ENTERING TRAFFIC AND ATTEMPTING TO GET UP TO THE SPEED OF TRAFFIC DURING A TIME WHEN ALL OTHER CARS AROUND ME ARE ALSO ACCELERATING, IT'S HAPPENED SINCE THE FIRST DAY I BOUGHT THE JEEP I'VE ALREADY FILED A COMPLAINT. THESE ENGINES SHOULD BE RECALLED.

VEHICLE SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING AS WELL AS TAKING TURNS. JUST SHUTS OFF WITH NO WARNING. AFTER IT SHUTS OFF THE LIGHTNING BOLT IN PARENTHESES (ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL SYSTEM) COMES ON, THEN GOES AWAY. CAR SHOWS AS STILL RUNNING, BUT WON'T MOVE. SOMETIMES THE LOW OIL GAUGE COMES ON, BUT THE VEHICLE IS UP TO DATE WITH OIL CHANGES. VERY UNSAFE FOR VEHICLE TO JUST "STOP MOVING" OR "SHUT OFF" IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING, OR IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON AND OFF FOR ABOUT 4 MONTHS, BUT NOW IT IS DAILY.
